Phishing - the new threat on internet

Phishing (pronounced as 'Fishing') is going to be a future threat on the internet .The idea behind this is designing phony websites designed for a branded company and stealing your personal and valuable information .
Usually the phishers will send you email messages which will have links to fraudulent websites which will ask for your CC details .The sites will have the logos and look like you have reached the official page .
I recommend you to use the new Internet explorer 7 which have a built-in phisher filter which will always look for phishers behind any website .
